Thicketed?

Verb used as adjective? Looks like an adverb.

  1. Adjectival, like wooded hillside, whited sepulchre, towered Ilium, etc.

    And I wish you a happy Thanksgiving if I can make that retroactive.

  3. The wonder is that my chronic inconsequentiality hasn't induced pernicious inertia. Good genes, probably.

  4. "Pernicious inertia": medical condition; or strange physics of the quantum level?
